Get Started
Audio / Produced by The High CallingTranscript
There was no denying that Ken had a tough assignment at work. And there was no doubt that Ken was dodging that assignment. He had a hundred excuses—and he used them—to delay getting started.
Meanwhile, Ken’s boss trusted him. Relied on him. And the deadline wasn’t changing. Finally, at long last, Ken executed the most difficult part of the assignment . . . he got started. And as usual, once begun, the hard work led to good results.
This is Howard Butt, Jr., of Laity Lodge. We can procrastinate and use elaborate excuses, but they all blind us to one simple fact: the best way to start a job . . . is to start the job! . . . in the high calling of our daily work.
